Hydrodynamics of non-equilibrium soil water retention

open access: yesWater Resources Research, 2022
Water retention in soil exhibits diverse phenomena, including suction-saturation hysteresis, non-unique air entrapment at zero suction and negative suction under partial saturations. The constancy of suction after a long rest can be broken by relatively minor mechanical or hydraulic agitations such as low-amplitude wetting cycles -- this fact is here ...
